FAQ's

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content of C-13 compare to other cocktails?

The C-13 cocktail has an alcohol content of 12%, placing it in the moderate range. It's less potent than strong cocktails like a traditional Martini or Manhattan, which can exceed 20% alcohol content, but stronger than light cocktails such as a Mimosa or a Spritz, which often have alcohol contents around 8-10%.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve a C-13 for optimal taste?

The C-13 should be served cold in a highball glass. Ensure it's shaken well to perfectly blend the vodka, apricot brandy, and apple juice. Garnishing with an apple slice or apricot slice can add to the visual appeal and subtly enhance the flavor profile.

Ingredient substitutions icon

If I don't have apricot brandy, what can I use as a substitute in a C-13?

If apricot brandy is not available, a good substitute would be peach schnapps or pear brandy. These alternatives will maintain the fruity character of the cocktail while offering a slightly different taste profile.
